Head coach Marcelo Bielsa named an unchanged side for Wednesday night's clash at Aston Villa despite having midfielder Adam Forshaw back available following a minor hamstring injury.
Forshaw returned to the bench as Robin Koch and Mateusz Klich formed the centre midfield axis behind a front four of Raphinha, Jack Harrison, Rodrigo and Dan James who netted a brace in the no 9 role as part of a 3-3 draw.
There were hopes that left back Junior Firpo would be back available this weekend following his recent hamstring injury but Bielsa revealed at his Friday morning pre-match press conference that the left back would instead return next week.
That means Leeds still have four key first team players out, Firpo along with Kalvin Phillips, Liam Cooper and Patrick Bamford.
Following the latest team news and considering how Everton have lined up under new boss Frank Lampard, this is the Leeds XI we expect to see at Goodison Park.
7. CM - Mateusz Klich
Klich had a strong game at Villa, the Pole eventually replaced by the returning Adam Forshaw in the 85th minute. Forshaw has been excellent of late and whether he now starts in place of Klich or Koch is the big decision but the gut feeling is as you were.
8. RW - Raphinha
The class act Brazilian star just could not get going against Villa but Raphinha has an excellent record against the Toffees, scoring against the Merseyside outfit on all three times he has faced them. No surprise if that record is enhanced further.
9. LW - Jack Harrison
When everyone is fit there's a question mark as to who starts on the left flank out of Harrison and Dan James but there is no such headache with Bamford injured and James currently deployed elsewhere.
10. ACM - Rodrigo
United's record signing caused Villa loads of bother on Wednesday night and showed a lovely chemistry with James upfront. The Spaniard could cause Everton mayhem if he once again gets in the groove.
11. ST - Dan James
There's always a big debate about who starts in the no 9 role when Bamford is out but natural winger James was electric upfront at Villa and was unlucky not to have a hat-trick. Joe Gelhardt and Tyler Roberts are other options but it's surely DJ up tops at Everton.
